Default Many of them are sadly not mine

I have mentioned in other posts, I save images from various sources of stuff that I am into. Many of the scans are not items I own - some I was competing for in past auctions and lost. Some happily I do own. I have always had a special place in my heart for Bazookas - especially uncut sheets and complete boxes. My focus has been on my favorite player Roberto Clemente. I have at least 1 box from every year he was featured except for 1960 - which has been at the top of my want list for many years. On a side note, something that Larry taught me about was that from 1960-1967 there were 2 size variations on the bazooka boxes. A 20 piece box and a 25 piece box! I do not know if all players were made in both sizes. It could drive you crazy (it has - me) trying to find all the size variations. I am still looking for the following Clemente's:

1960 - both
1964 - 25 piece
1965 - 25 piece
1966 - 25 piece
1967 - 25 piece

And the following complete boxes:

1959 - Any
1960 - Any
1961 - Any
1962 - Most
1964 - Most
